minus-squareIm_old@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 months agoWell, yes and no. Chasing can also mean removing material with a chisel, not just indenting by bending/hammering.

minus-squareSuccessful_Try543@feddit.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-22 months agoYes, as one can see, the shaft is hollow. So one or two sheet of forged metal, bent and chased and finally soldered (or even welded?). Edit: I didn’t notice you were talking about the shaft from the very beginning. Sorry, too early in the morning.
